Singer-songwriter Taro Kobayashi will release a new album on January 26th.
Gouhou will contain 11 tracks, including a song called Kotsudendou that he revealed on YouTube last summer and the previously-released digital singles Dragon Killing, sickness and Fumidasu ippome.
The album will be released both on CD and on digital platforms.
While Kobayashi released a solo EP in 2018 and a split EP with the band Academic BANANA in 2019, this will be his first full-length album in about six years, following 2015's URBANO.
The music video for Kotsudendou can be viewed below.
In addition to his solo work, Kobayashi has been lending his voice to the rhythm game "BlackStar ~Theater Starless~" in recent years. He serves as the singing voice of Akira, the blue-haired vocalist of TeamW.
Videos for the songs Breakin' it faster and Seaside Escape, which both feature Akira on vocals, can be viewed below. The MV for Breakin' it faster is a special video that breaks with the project's usual format, featuring
Kobayashi performing instead of images of the game characters.
